Hi Ron,
Great sound! Yes, BIAB has never done pushes properly, and I'm thinking it will never happen at this point.
Your guitars sound perfect, as does Dusty's vocal. Clever write as per usual.
Good stuff, enjoyed.

Hello, good song. If we can no longer court girls at work, we might as well stay at home and I'll still be single.
Laurent Ha! Yes, the workplace dating policy has evolved a bit over the years, at least here in America. Glad you liked the song! Hey DC,
Man this is another great work and an indie pop classic!
I really like your productions! They're always so perky, and fun and uplifting.
Love everything about this man, but again especially the fact that it's just super fun all the way around.
Nice. Hi, David. Well, THANKS for the positive perspective. Y'know, we do a lot of tunes that are neither perky, nor fun, nor uplifting, but they perhaps aren't as enjoyable to listen to, so...why consume the energy here? That word "fun" is where we're at, or try to be. Glad you loved the song! That was fun to hear.

Solid.
You guys have a great "signature sound".
Excellent job on the guitars - pushes well done (a weakness in the program, imo)
Excellent mix.
Very much enjoyed.
fj
"AI: None" - just the right amount. Thanks, Floyd! Have abandoned a lot of pushes on other songs due to BiaB limits, but this song really required them. Truth is I leaned more heavily on the-best-BiaB-can-do before I retired. Now that I have the time, I should really get back to playing the stuff I can play. It's a little slower, but a lot of fun. And it's all about fun, right? Glad you enjoyed the tune!

Cool guitar sound. Reminds me somewhat of Marshall Crenshaw. Enjoyed the story in the song==clever.. Production sounds crisp and clean.

A good fun song, nicely arranged and sung.
Excellent work.
Peter Thanks, Peter! Lol, I worked for a very large corporation and workplace romance was a dangerous endeavor. This song describes such situations really good. Enjoyed my listen.
Charlie Thank you, Charlie! "A dangerous endeavor" is a spot-on summation of the environment. So many of these workplace attractions end up badly (though some do not) that the happy ending in this tune is a nice little lift. Glad you enjoyed the tune!

Hey Ron,
Your signature sound is one of my favorites! Dusty always works his magic on the vocals. And, of course, you folks always give him a great musical performance to work with. In other words, ya'll work great together!
I particularly liked the drums.
I guess you could say, "Everything in this song adds up perfectly."
Best to you,
Alan Ha! THANKS for the kind "summation", Alan!

Unexpected stories with humor and positivity, I'm very glad to hear such pop music on this forum by your team. Strangely funny lines like "And as she gazed out the window, I wanted to shout/But knowing the rules, I took a timeout", and very good advices "Cos some things only come around once in your life/They’re more important than working from nine to five". I enjoyed the arrangement and the mix, the drums sound very good and those guitars are delicious - they create older indie/college rock feel where passion for playing is more important than perfection. Your melodies are contagious as always and the vocalist sounds like a very famous singer who I've been listening for several years - I guess that implies that he is now famous Janne

Very nice. It's got that jangly pop sound and story line.
My only nit is the the bass seems a bit lite. It could have had a more solid bottom end
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

Wow, there are so many great rhymes in that lyric! Janice immediately said “That is a sweet story told in a clever and amusing way.” - Great vocal - Powerful drums - Excellent mix - Cool work with your ax and the RT’s A joyous sound that we much enjoyed! J&B PS You wrote “AI: None.” We call AI “Ain’t Interested.”

Clever lyrics, upbeat tune, nice work! Thanks, Rob! My lyricist always keeps me on my toes (or should) because I don't want to waste any of his very cool lyric ideas. If it weren't for him, there's a 0% chance I'd be posting here. Glad you enjoyed the tune!

Good stuff, enjoyed. Thanks, Dave! Yeah, Dusty and my lyricist are way beyond me. The guitar parts were fun to play, need to do that more.

Marshall did a lot of Buddy Holly and Bobby Fuller style arrangements, and I can definitely hear that, too. My lyricist has written many (maybe mostly) story songs, and I find them very rewarding to work with. Glad you enjoyed the tune!

Definitely have more passion than perfection in those guitars, but I like the way they bounce off each other. Dusty is a supremely gifted vocalist for sure. He should be much more well known than he is. Appreciate the listen!

My only nit is the the bass seems a bit lite. It could have had a more solid bottom end Thanks, Herb! I bumped the bass up with EQ & volume based on Ray's input, but I'll listen to it again. There's always something!
